Do all the OEM 19' wheels and tires ride like this?
When I took delivery of my new M3, the car had a real bad vibration at high speed (>100km/h). It turned out 3 of the tires had flat spot on them, so dealer replaced all 4 tires with Michelin PS2 245/35/19F 265/35/19R. After that the car drives fine on the freeway, but whenever I'm cruising around 90km/h there is a noticeable vibration through the steering wheel, going at any lower and higher speed the vibration disappears. Dealer told me that that's the nature of this type of wheel & tire combination, and they justified it by putting a set of 18' OEM wheel/tires on my car and asked me to test drive it. The car drove like a completely different car. The ride was so much smoother and there was no vibration at any speed whatsoever. Now I know that my car does not have any suspension problems, I'm just wondering if anyone had experience the same issue with the OEM 19'wheel/tires. Would it help if I switch to a different brand of tires (keeping the same specs)?
Thanks in advance.
